Introduction to CompactRIO Programmable Automation Controller (PAC)

This short webcast introduces the NI CompactRIO reconfigurable embedded control and acquisition system. It describes the rugged hardware architecture of the CompactRIO system including the I/O modules, reconfigurable field-programmable gate arrary (FPGA) chassis, and the real-time controller. Additionally, it shows how CompactRIO is programmed with LabVIEW graphical programming tools and describes the variety of embedded control and monitoring applications CompactRIO is suited for.
